I love world building as you may be able to tell from my books. From the Watch system in Vespiri, to the nomadic Families in Terolia, they make it real to me. In book three we are off to freezing Archduchy of Elothia.(less)

Hi Lori,

Thank you for the question.

There are six books in the main series with two novellas. Book six should release later this year which will wrap the series up (though I may consider a spin off series if there is the demand!). Then there is the prequel, which may be two books, depends how long it gets (its currently 135k words and there is still a way to go!). I also have ideas for some side stories in the same world as the characters are such fun to write, so I may write more.

So glad you are enjoying the series. (less)
